I Think R Has Weaned...

And I miss nursing him already!

He still "nurses" pag feel niya but for about 3 seconds lang then he lets go na. He sometimes smells my me lang then he goes on playing na. Tears... :( Sometimes Ako pa nag-ooffer hehe! I am still in denial that my baby has weaned.

But I am happy and proud of myself for breastfeeding R this long. No formula at all. Nothing is more fulfilling than being able to breastfeed my kids.

And because I truly believe in the power of breast milk, and I want to help moms out there to wants to breastfeed successfully, I trained to become a LATCH Peer Counselor! Yay!

Breastfeeding Classes!

I attended my first (hopefully not the last) breastfeeding class July of last year at Rustan's Makati. It was really informative, hearing and listening first hand experience from other breastfeeding moms. I know I wanted to breastfeed but had no idea what to do, how to do it or even where to start. So attending that class really helped me. I found out about the class from reading Fabnaima, where I also got more information on breastfeeding. She just posted new class schedules for January, I just want to repost it here!


This coming weekend, L.A.T.C.H. will be holding its first breastfeeding class for the year. It will be at the 4/F of the Center for Patient Partnership Building, The Medical City, Meralco Ave., Pasig City from 9AM to 12NN. According to Jenny (of Fabnaima), a must-join is their break-out group - this is unique to LATCH classes. Counselors split up the class into smaller groups to discuss the specifics of latching and positioning. Classes are free. If I could, I would attend this class, but we (family) have a wedding to attend.

Breastfeeding 101 of The Breastfeeding Club is from 8AM to 10AM over at The Medela House, #29 1st St., New Manila, Quezon City (Contact Nos. 725-3723, 738-6272, 0917-5614366) 1st St., New Manila, Quezon City (725-3723, 738-6272, 0917-5614366). The Breastfeeding 101 is about the basics, advantages, tips, and early troubleshooting. Abbie Yabot (also my lactation counselor), Certified Philippine Lactation Counselor holds a series of classes starting this month.

For more info, contact nos., other breastfeeding classes and questions, please visit Fabnaima.

I do hope I could attend future classes and meet other moms.
